Cam Newton is an extremely special player. I saw this last year at Auburn....the guy just has something that other people dont. We have NEVER seen a football player like this in the NFL. He's the LeBron James of the NFL in many ways.....except the big difference is that he's a WINNER and he will win alot of games in Charlotte beginning next week v. Jax.

Cam Gains Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews' Respect

That and about $4 will get you a descent sized cup of coffee at Starbucks! You know what would really earn not only THEIR respect but the rest of the NFL's as well? Beating their @ss!

For a rookie QB playing in his 2nd NFL game and being asked to carry the entire team on his shoulders without a running game, havnig to pass for something like 45 times, against the defending Super Bowl Champions - yeah, he played really well - better than I expected he would at the end of pre-season. At times he is extremely poised and looks like he has been playing for years. Other times he makes the mistakes that remind us he is a rookie. Even in those moments he demonstrates his potential.

I am glad Rodgers and Mathews are impressed, but I would rather they be in awe after having suffered a loss.

      He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
